In an experiment to test a new drug’s effectiveness, one group is given a larger dosage than is typically prescribed, and a second group is given a smaller dosage than is typically prescribed. Then, the results of the groups are compared to each other. What is missing that would improve this scientific design? a control group
a second independent variable
a dependent variable
an independent variable

Calculate the expected ph values of the buffer systems from the experiments (a,b,c,d), using the henderson- hasselbalch equation, ph-pka+log[a-]/[ha]. use for pka values carbonic acid= 6.37, and acetic acid= 4.75.

Identify one disadvantage to each of the following models of electron configuration: -dot structures -arrow and line diagrams -written electron configurations type in your answer below. (answer) -dot structures do not show the distribution of electrons in orbitals and take up a lot of space. -arrow and line diagrams take up a lot of space and make it difficult to count electrons. -written configurations make it easy to lose count of electrons and do not show the distribution of electrons in orbitals.

Select all of the statements which are true. electrons are located in shells or orbits around the atom. electrons orbit slowly around the atom. electrons travel in one flat path around the nucleus of an atom. the valence of an atom is determined by the number of electrons in the atom's outermost shell.
